Abstract
In this book the abstracts as well as the full text of the papers, collected from various countries, presented at the Second Research Workshop "Mission, Leadership and Sustainability" organized by the Chair Management by Missions and Corporate Governance from UIC on March 3rd, 2016 are collected. The workshop took place the day before the Symposium organized under the same title by the Chair, which brought together several hundred business executives to discuss the same topic: sustainability from the point of view of the mission. This was also the central theme of the workshop, but it was treated from an academic perspective with the aim of collect and discuss scientific contributions and recent developments on mission. With these activities, one of the inspirational objectives of the Chair, which is to promote research projects, teaching and transmitting knowledge concerning the model of Management by Missions (MBM), is being developed.
In this research workshop management by missions has been analyzed both in theory and in practice. In the theoretical research (Part. I. Academic Research papers) has been studied the economic, strategic, organizational, social, motivational and anthropological foundations behind this trend. In the practical field (Part II. Practical Papers) ways in which organizations introduce this new form of management and the best practices to promote its development have been presented. Specifically, the the following topics have been proposed:
Missions and leadership; Missions and leadership; Missions and sustainability; Missions and sustainability; Personal mission; Personal-Organizational mission integration
